Netori or die, pick one. Get to it lol
An entirely black space.
Kieeeek...!
A scream echoed from somewhere.
Splash. Splash.
My feet felt sticky and cold.
I kept walking through the water.
No, now that I looked... it wasn't water. It was blood.
As I waded through the blood up to my ankles, a hand suddenly shot out and grabbed my ankle.
The face that emerged was a gruesome corpse, half its flesh torn away.
...A face I'd seen before.
Though familiar, it wasn't someone I was close to.
To me, it was just a passing extra.
"You... You... Me..."
I didn't panic.
The hand gripping my ankle tore off effortlessly when I lifted my knee, and I stomped down on the face.
Just before crushing it like trash, in those rotten eyes, I saw myself...
Smiling innocently, of all things.
I woke from the dream.
"......"
I lay in bed without getting up, staring at the ceiling for stains.
This luxurious, spacious hotel was impeccably clean—no dust in sight.
The bed was so plush that half my body sank into it.
If I wasn't careful, I might drift back to sleep right there.
My foggy mind wandered.
What now?
I absentmindedly touched my body. No pain anywhere.
Even with my body suddenly collapsing, nothing felt off yet, so it didn't feel real.
...Or maybe it wasn't sudden. Maybe it made sense.
A human body perfectly fusing with another substance to block attacks—something had to give.
That technique was like turning a person into fire, after all.
Still, I couldn't wrap my head around it.
A strange dissonance kept swirling in my mind, but no real sense of crisis.
I wasn't the type to carry anxiety around anyway. But this was extreme.
...Did the system lie to me?
......
Putting baseless speculation aside, let's think realistically.
As Understanding of All Things explained, the optimal leveling method is using the NTR, Netori, Plunder Love skill.
Even then, it might be tight.
Body collapse progression: 78%. At 1-3% per day, if luck's bad, even aggressive use might not hit level 100.
Variables could arise.
For instance, higher levels slowing the collapse.
That's hopeful for me, but the worst case could accelerate it.
Nothing's certain... but I know my feelings.
I don't want to do Netori crap.
And I don't want to die.
Memories from high school days flooded back in fluffy clouds.
Thinking of them made me yearn for my original world.
I don't want to die yet.
There's stuff I want to do if I go back.
The gods said they'd take measures—should I pin hopes there?
But they seemed clueless about how I survived Prostia's attack.
Can they really provide a solution?
Suddenly, staying still felt uncomfortable.
When daylight hits... no, head to the hunting grounds now?
Chop down whatever's in sight—maybe gain even one level.
⚙ SYSTEM NOTIFICATION ⚙ Your current state is highly unusual. It will take time to find a ? who knows the solution. What the hell. Just say you don't know.
⚙ SYSTEM NOTIFICATION ⚙ Stats once granted cannot be revoked. Know Thyself and Know Thy Enemy.
Beyond that skill, the excessive stats were ruining me, they said.
Whether pride or impossibility prevented taking them back.
⚙ SYSTEM NOTIFICATION ⚙ We know you have an aversion to the 'NTR, Netori, Plunder Love' skill. Thus, we enclose several efficient alternatives. Efficient methods?
A bunch of text soon scrolled up.
⚙ SYSTEM NOTIFICATION ⚙ 1. Have sex with hard-to-conquer targets. Opponents of noble or special bloodlines, domineering types, or those with special circumstances that make conquest difficult will grant far more blessings from Prynar. Naturally, the higher the difficulty, the stronger the blessings. 2. Sleep with many women. The more partners, the better—group sex is also recommended. Sleeping with others while in a relationship is highly efficient. 3. Have sex with multiple races. Elves are prime examples, but also dwarves, beastkin, and more. Even some monsters possess great beauty. 4. Additional EXP for those combining the above factors. Witnessing nobles grants minor EXP too! We wish you luck and enclose a special skill. Special Skill: Bang Simulation. These guys. Did they die from blue balls or something?
I only lost my virginity recently and wasn't desperate, but they act like I'm some incubus.
Hard-to-conquer like El or Clarit?
Me banging them? Yeah, right.
Number 2 was even more absurd.
No way I could handle multiples, and it straight-up pushes cheating—total turn-off.
Number 3... multiple races. So far, I'd only seen humans, monsters, or that dragon. No clue where the others live.
Monsters reminded me of that crazy slime calling herself an idol.
Monster mindset aside, she was cute and felt good.
3 seems decent. Worth considering...
The gods' "advice" was all trash, killing what little faith I had.
Still, check the free skill.
⚡ SKILL ACTIVATED ⚡ Bang Simulation [SP 99] [Active] Assists optimal banging with targets you're eyeing.
View affection levels. High affection or states reveal thoughts/events!
Affection system straight out of an eroge.
Still, peeking into minds is handy.
Scroll remained. Down further, one line appeared.
⚙ SYSTEM NOTIFICATION ⚙ A friendly message from your assigned ? Netori or die, pick one. Get to it lolololol
......
Loveheart? Nah, doesn't seem like her. If it was, I'd applaud the total disconnect.
I dismissed the window and got up.
I'd planned to leave Milf Village eventually.
Capital visit was on the list, but not Prynar Academy enrollment.
But I needed to rethink that.
Milf Village had decent population, but no special bloodlines, races, or high nobles.
Prynar Academy, though.
Gathering the world's talented and influential... surely more conquest targets there.
No guarantee I'd bang anyone, of course.
Thought I'd relax awhile, but here I am, horny dog-brained over this crap.
Consider capital trip for now.
And hunting grounds tomorrow morning.
Hunt all day—if no dice, rethink then.
The next day.
I headed out at dawn but bailed after three hours. This ain't it.
EXP rose, but glacially.
Maybe one level a day, if lucky.
No, as levels rise, required EXP balloons. One per week might be impossible.
Back at the hotel, the two knights—who'd fidgeted about not joining at dawn—lit up.
I bowed in greeting, showered, and hit the bed.
Dawn labor, yet mind razor-sharp.
"...This sucks."
Thought I'd resolved things well, but this is overkill.
Feels like they're forcing it 'cause I won't pork on command.
...No choice. Prynar Academy.
I'd leaned that way anyway, but semi-forced sours it.
Knock knock.
"Yes."
I mumbled blankly; door opened to gold-trimmed armor. Repelt.
Didn't wanna rise, but forced myself.
"Resting?"
"Yes."
"Heard you hunted monsters since morning."
"Body felt stiff."
"Hm... Something bothering you?"
That obvious? Or Repelt sharp?
I shook my head; she eyed suspiciously, muttering "If you say so..."
"Hey, wanna come with to see the young master now?"
"To Gold?"
"He wants to talk. Oh, no misunderstanding—he wanted to come here, but Kaisir objected."
"Understood."
Gold held a title, Hart Clan heir among the Ten Great Families.
Such a figure visiting a mere Outsider wouldn't look good to underlings.
"Let's go."
"Ah, thanks. As expected, Dre—you're so understanding."
Empty praise, but not unpleasant.
Out in the hall, she stuck close beside me.
"Kaisir's so stubborn. Said both Hart Clan Knight Captains escorting one Outsider is overkill—flat refused."
"Stubborn...?"
I thought it reasonable.
"Yeah. Well, neither I nor Kaisir could do shit to that dragon, right? My defense shattered in under a second to the breath, and Kaisir's attacks did zilch..."
I thought holding that long was impressive.
My Severing Sword with fire attribute and Know Thyself and Know Thy Enemy were freakishly OP.
Even then, a proper Prostia would've killed us.
They faced it head-on.
That courage and skill can't be dismissed.
Still, I shone brightest—Repelt acknowledging me felt great.
"So I wanted to thank you. Without you, we couldn't protect the young master—we'd all be dead."
"No, your help let us win."
"Aw, so humble~"
She poked my elbow—armor made it hurt like hell.
Midway, she noticed, sheepishly lowering her arm.
But fidgeting like she wanted to say something embarrassing.
Repelt was brave, though.
"Um... y'know."
"?"
"You were... super cool."
Her usual tomboy tone turned shy—heart fluttered.
Armor hid it, but Repelt was magazine-model Western beauty.
"...Is that so."
Objectively stunning.
Street passerby? All ages turn heads. Her shyness? Eye candy.
Plus, she seemed into me—mood soared...
⚔ STATUS ⚔ Bang Simulation Scan Result Name: Repelt Vynus Virgin: O Affection: 78 (Romantic Interest) Details: Massive tits hidden by armor. Elastic body from daily knight training. 'Why... why am I nervous talking to Dre all of a sudden?' From knight family sworn to Hart Clan since youth. No dating experience—pure life of guarding Gold. Total pushover! Use for EXP.
All good, but what asshole picked "pling" sound...?
Anyway, neat skill...
"Huh? What's up?"
"Nothing."
Shaken inside, but played it cool.
Repelt glanced, then looked ahead.
...Nervous walking with me? Romantic interest?
Suddenly cuter, prettier.
Post-scan, her choppy steps from tension made me tense too.
I strode casually to hide mine.
Awkward-yet-happy minutes later, Gold's room.
Repelt knocked.
"Young master. Entering."
"Yeah! Come in!"
Gold's eternal high energy.
Cheerful guy.
Repelt held door, nodded me in.
She'd wait outside.
I entered; Gold arms-wide welcome...
...Gold, right?
I double-took; he bellowed.
"Welcome! Dre!"
"Y... You're cool."
"Hm? Ah, no styling."
Gold tousled hair.
As said, usual upright spikes now straight.
Frankly, insanely handsome.
Repelt with this prime lord beside her—still virgin? If I were her, sanity gone.
"Hahaha! Dragon chat so fun, overslept! Skipped hair!"
"I see."
"Sit!
I sat as bidden.
Ahh... premium leather texture. Killer.
"Dre! Called you for good news!"
"Good news...?"
Gold shared: I'd been granted Prynar Academy instructor credentials. And a royal decree.
"Why instructor?"
"Hm?"
"Rumor has it even student entry is grueling... Instructor for me? Wild."
Must be unprecedented favoritism.
I'd researched: Prynar's prestige immense—students revered. No Outsider history there.
Newbie Outsider me as instructor? Huge push.
"Uahahaha! Dragon, subduer of world-ending Prostia—if not you, who? Too humble looks bad, Dre!"
Yeah, fair point.
Appreciated, anyway—feels good.
"Precisely, instructor and student status. Double benefits!"
"Eh... Possible?"
"Normally no! Hart, Blija, Graize, Gier! We pulled strings!"
Brazen.
Gier new, but Ten Great Family, sure.
"So, Dre. What do you want?"
"I..."
Honestly, not thrilled.
Prynar legendary, but unseen—unreal.
Plus royal decree.
Thrilling once, but post-gods, royals feel meh.
And leaving Milf Village? Didn't want to.
Backstab central, yet... Nila. Gave virginity, took hers.
No more sex, but firsts are special, huh.
I closed eyes.
For future... what to do...
Answer came.
"I'll go."
Bittersweet, Nila lingering—but ties to sever eventually.
Live first, right?
Thus, capital trip and Prynar enrollment set.
Humans are weird.
Once decided, subtle excitement builds.
